California Three-Day Notice

California Three-Day Notice

A defective three-day notice gets your eviction case dismissed before it starts — forcing you to refile, pay court fees again, and lose weeks of additional rent. Our California three-day notices include every required element under California Code of Civil Procedure §1161 and the jurisdiction-specific language required for rent-controlled cities. You get the right form for your property's location, prepared by professionals who handle California evictions daily.
 
What's included
  • Three-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit — standard California version
  • Rent-controlled city versions: Oakland (RAP-compliant), San Francisco (SF Rent Ordinance), Los Angeles (RSO-compliant), and general California
  • All required elements under CCP §1161 — tenant name, property address, exact rent amount, payment instructions, service language
  • Current with 2026 California law including SB 567 tenant rights language
  • Fillable PDF and Word format
  • Instruction sheet: how to fill out, how to serve, how to count the three-day period correctly
